hello,
Just wondered whether anyone can offer me any recommendations on types of poll guards to use for loading and travelling?
I have always travelled my mare alone without a partition but this only really works if you have your own trailer (which i dont at the moment)
Last summer I tried to load my mare on a friends trailer with her horse and she pulled back and banged her head and cut it open (not seriously but a cut all the same)
I hadnt had a chance to load her since then so took the oportunity to borrow my friends trailer this weekend - she didnt want to load and was very reluctant - she kept throwing her head up and I dont want her to band her head and refuse to load all together.
So Im thinking I need a good poll guard - this was an Ifor 510 so plenty big enough for her in theory.
She did load eventually but just want to make this easier as she's always beena great loader.
